When you are working on a diagram for example in vote chess, you may have a main line, and a couple of branch lines. As you puzzle over which line is best, you may promote one of the branch lines to the main line. In v2, when you did this, the work you put into the third branch line would get wiped out, and any later branches in your former main line would get pruned as well.
v3 seems better in that third branch lines don't get deleted, but the strange thing is that if I try to promote a move further along in one of my branches to be the main move in that branch, instead it promotes the whole branch line to become the main line. I then have to sift through all the lines again, and try to rectify the damage.
In v3, wouldn't it be possible to program move promotion so that the place of the promoted line remains where it was originally rather than getting shifted to become a new main line?
What happens in v3 is if I click on 2.Nf3 and select "promote" in the lines "1.e4 ( 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 (2.Nf3 ) ) 1...e5", suddenly 1.d4 becomes the main line instead of 1.e4.
